Moncler Gamme Rouge: For Spring, Moncler's catwalk aptly took the form of a swimming pool, surrounded by wooden decking. A set of swings and trampolines recreated the playful, summery atmospheres of Italian Lidos

Alexander McQueen: Sarah Burton's bee-inspired collection was brought to life on set by seamlessly integrated moving imagery and sound. Models walked on a honeycomb-patterned catwalk, while a screen behind them played a film by John Maybury. The English filmmaker's second collaboration with the brand was created in a extremely wide-screen format to emulate the staging of Kabuki theatre at Kabuki-Za in Tokyo. He drew images from nature in response to particular embroideries and fabrics in Burton's collection, creating a giant mood board effect. This came accompanied by a sound track of tunes interlaced with abstract bee noises, conjured by John Gosling

Jil Sander: Thierry Dreyfus transformed the via Beltrami space beyond recognition by raising the floor and lowering the ceiling with stark white panels, each bearing a subtle concave/convex distortion in the centre.
